The duo that put the boogie in every boot-scootin' bar of the '90s. Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn were paired by a record executive in 1988, sent their first four singles to number one, and turned "Boot Scootin' Boogie" into the song that dragged line dancing back onto America's dance floors.
Rows of strangers in boots doing the same grapevine at the same time. In 1992 a record label's marketing stunt for "Achy Breaky Heart" and a Brooks & Dunn B-side turned country-bar line dancing into a national craze, and for a few years every country bar, wedding reception, and hotel lounge seemed to have a floor full of people counting steps.
